Hi! I am a level 3 advanced fitness trainer, registered with the register of exercise professionals and the inland revenue.

I have worked as an outdoor activities and fitness class instructor, and as a personal trainer and can offer training in:

climbing / abseiling / navigation for hills and orienteering, personal fitness in the gym , group circuits instruction, dance fusion instruction ( i attended dance school from the age of 4, and performed 4 times a year at the Churchill theatre in Edinburgh from the age of 6 to 14 ; have had training with Bode Lawal and performed one of his routines at the MacRoberts theatre in Stirling, where i also performed an Andy Howitt piece called Stutter, in 2000. I also modelled by dancing in a Penny Lister performance wear costume ( which i did most of the choreography for), 4 shows for the edinburgh college of art degree show in 2000. ( watch out for her she's an amazing designer!! ) I have also had exercise to music training and do team building!

I have the Ullswater Outward Bound Classic Course training certificate as well as SVQ training in Outdoor Pursuits Activity Leadership From Edinburgh's Telford College. I have an SVQ Fitness instructor qualification from Stevenson College and an NC in Landscape Construction and Design from Oatridge Agricultural College ( wait for it...in Ecclesmachan!! cool name for a place eh!?). This means I can identify and cultivate wild plants, vegetables and trees, build brick walls, identify different types of rock (i also belay climbing using a gri gri ) and operate a tractor on private ground! Good for when out on a hike in the country, and when I want to have my own farm.

I have a current BASP first aid certificate (even though i've never skied on real snow - hillened ski centre ( people from canada - please don't laugh when u look this up on the web :0) I don't do ski instruction or kayaking instruction although i've been kayaking since i was 10!

I don't know if that's still current. I haven't seen Nicole post here in some time.

wow! sounds interesting indeed! do you also have programs for busy women? maybe some online videos?? i'm a city dweller and you talked a lot about farms...i'm wondering if you also have something for me that doesn't need me to be inside the gym..

I think the distance between Scotland and the Philippines would be a major problem.

I am thinking about going to school for personal training. I was wondering if you could recommend a few personal training schools to look into or just any advice at all regarding a career in personal training.
